Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday hinted at further reforms in the Goods and Service Tax (GST) in a manner that will reduce the tax burden on businesses and consumers further, and give a fillip to the economy’s growth potential.

Addressing the gathering after inaugurating the Uttar Pradesh International Trade Show 2025 here, he said: “Today, the country is proudly celebrating ‘GST Bachat Utsav’. I want to tell you that we are not going to stop here. In 2017, we brought GST… and then again (brought reforms) in 2025. We will further strengthen the economy. As the economy continues to grow, the tax burden will continue to decrease. With the blessings of the citizens, the reforms in the GST will continue.”
